The present invention provides a current measuring device including a probe body having an elongated portion extending outward to a hook-shaped end wherein the hook-shaped end useful for isolating a conductor under test, a U-shaped magnetic core positioned upside down within the probe body and forming the hook-shaped end of the probe body wherein the U-shaped magnetic core has an interior surface extending between a first end and a second end and defines a current sensing zone therebetween, a first Hall sensor disposed upon the first end of the interior surface of the U-shaped magnetic core, and a second Hall sensor disposed upon the second end of the interior surface of the U-shaped magnetic core wherein the Hall sensors are capable of detecting a magnetic flux generated by an electric current passing through the conductor under test positioned within the current sensing zone. The device may further include amplifier circuitry electrically interconnected with the Hall sensors for amplifying electrical signals therefrom, an output board interconnected with the amplifier circuitry for receiving an amplified output signal from the amplifier circuitry and for providing power to the amplifier circuitry, and a digital multimeter extending rearward from the probe body opposite the hook-shaped end and electrically coupled to the output board.
